Definitions
- the invention relates to a baking plate arrangement for a Waffelbackautomaten with two pivotally interconnected baking plates, wherein at least one baking plate is biased in each case convexly with respect to a baking surface, so that when the baking plate assembly is closed before starting a baking process, a distance in a central region of the baking plates is smaller than a distance in an edge region of the baking plates to compensate for deformation of the baking plates during the baking process.
- Such baking plate arrangements are used in industrial wafer baking machines for the fully automatic production of wafer sheets. For this purpose, a predetermined amount of dough is applied to the baking surface of one of the baking plates when the baking plate arrangement is open and the baking plate arrangement is closed. Subsequently, the arranged between the baking plate arrangements dough is baked.

- a vapor pressure produced between the baking plates during the baking process can become so great that the baking plates are deformed concavely outward by the vapor pressure, especially in the middle region of the baking plates.
- Such particularly high vapor pressures occur, inter alia, in relatively large baking plates, in which the steam produced during baking can only be dissipated insufficiently via the steam outlet region.
- the baking result is impaired, since the deformation of the baking plates can often be many times greater than the predetermined thickness tolerance for the thickness of the baked product.

Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Backplattenanordnung für einen Waffelbackautomaten mit zwei schwenkbar miteinander verbundenen Backplatten, wobei mindestens eine Backplatte jeweils bezüglich einer Backfläche konvex vorgespannt ist, so dass bei geschlossener Backplattenanordnung vor Beginn eines Backvorgangs ein Abstand in einem mittleren Bereich der Backplatten kleiner ist als ein Abstand in einem Randbereich der Backplatten, um Verformungen der Backplatten während des Backvorgangs auszugleichen.
Solche Backplattenanordnungen werden in industriellen Waffelbackautomaten zur vollautomatischen Herstellung von Waffelblättern eingesetzt. Zu diesem Zweck wird bei geöffneter Backplattenanordnung eine vorgegebene Teigmenge auf die Backfläche einer der Backplatten aufgebracht und die Backplattenanordnung geschlossen. Anschließend wird der zwischen den Backplattenanordnungen angeordnete Teig gebacken. Um die Backplatten im geschlossenen Zustand zu fixieren, weisen herkömmliche Backplattenanordnungen geeignete Verschlussvorrichtungen auf.
Unterschiedlich ausgestaltete und aus dem Stand der Technik bekannte Backplattenanordnungen werden in den Druckschriften
Such baking plate arrangements are used in industrial wafer baking machines for the fully automatic production of wafer sheets. For this purpose, a predetermined amount of dough is applied to the baking surface of one of the baking plates when the baking plate arrangement is open and the baking plate arrangement is closed. Subsequently, the arranged between the baking plate arrangements dough is baked. In order to fix the baking plates in the closed state, conventional baking plate arrangements have suitable closure devices.
Differently designed and known from the prior art baking plate arrangements are in the
Während dieses Backprozesses entsteht zwischen den Backplatten Dampf. Dieser Dampf entweicht durch einen Dampfaustrittsbereich. Beispielsweise kann der Dampf durch einen an den Rändern der Backplatten in dem geschlossenen Zustand ausgebildeten Spalt entweichen.During this baking process steam is created between the baking plates. This steam escapes through a steam outlet area. For example, the steam may escape through a gap formed at the edges of the baking plates in the closed state.
Ein durch den während des Backprozesses erzeugten Dampf zwischen den Backplatten hervorgerufener Dampfdruck kann so groß werden, dass die Backplatten durch den Dampfdruck vor allem in dem mittleren Bereich der Backplatten konkav nach außen verformt werden. Solche besonders hohen Dampfdrücke treten unter anderem bei verhältnismäßig großen Backplatten auf, bei denen der während des Backens entstehende Dampf nur unzureichend über den Dampfaustrittsbereich abgeführt werden kann. Durch diese Verformung wird das Backergebnis beeinträchtigt, da die Verformung der Backplatten oftmals ein Vielfaches größer als die vorgegebene Dickentoleranz für die Dicke des Backprodukts sein kann.A vapor pressure produced between the baking plates during the baking process can become so great that the baking plates are deformed concavely outward by the vapor pressure, especially in the middle region of the baking plates. Such particularly high vapor pressures occur, inter alia, in relatively large baking plates, in which the steam produced during baking can only be dissipated insufficiently via the steam outlet region. By this deformation, the baking result is impaired, since the deformation of the baking plates can often be many times greater than the predetermined thickness tolerance for the thickness of the baked product.
Um dieser Verformung der Backplatten entgegenzuwirken ist es aus der Praxis bekannt, eine oder beide Backplatten üblicherweise konvex zu verformen und so vorzuspannen, dass die durch den Dampfdruck hervorgerufene Verformung der Backplatten zu ebenen Backflächen der Backplatten führt. Die für ein zufriedenstellendes Backergebnis erforderliche Vorspannung der Backplatten ist von verschiedenen Einflussgrößen abhängig und muss durch ein aufwendiges Justierungsverfahren gegebenenfalls in mehreren Schritten in jedem Einzelfall und für jedes Backprodukt gesondert ermittelt werden.To counteract this deformation of the baking plates, it is known from practice to deform one or both baking plates usually convex and bias so that the caused by the vapor pressure deformation of the baking plates leads to flat baking surfaces of the baking plates. The required for a satisfactory baking result bias of the baking plates is dependent on various factors and must be determined separately by a complex adjustment process, if necessary in several steps in each case and for each baked product.
In Abhängigkeit der Größe der verwendeten Backplatten und in Abhängigkeit des jeweils verwendeten Teigs kann allerdings zum Ausgleich der Verformung eine so starke konvexe Vorspannung erforderlich sein, dass die Backflächen in dem mittleren Bereich bei geschlossener Backplattenanordnung aneinander anliegen. Dadurch wird nach Aufbringen des Teigs auf eine der Backflächen bei Verschließen der Backplattenanordnung der Teig aus dem mittleren Bereich verdrängt, wodurch der Backvorgang beeinträchtigt wird.Depending on the size of the baking plates used and depending on the dough used in each case, however, to compensate for the deformation such a strong convex bias may be required that the baking surfaces abut each other in the central region with closed baking plate arrangement. As a result, after the dough has been applied to one of the baking surfaces when the baking plate arrangement is closed, the dough is displaced from the middle region, as a result of which the baking process is impaired.
Als Aufgabe der Erfindung wird es daher angesehen, Backplattenanordnungen mit konvex vorgespannten Backplatten so weiter zu entwickeln, dass der Backvorgang auch bei Verwendung verhältnismäßig großer Backplatten und beliebigen Teigsorten nicht beeinträchtigt wird.The object of the invention is therefore considered to further develop baking plate assemblies with convexly biased baking plates so that the baking process is not affected even when using relatively large baking plates and any type of dough.
Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, dass die Backplattenanordnung eine Anlageeinrichtung aufweist, die so an der Backplattenanordnung angeordnet ist, dass die Backplatten einer geschlossenen Backplattenanordnung einen Abstand zueinander aufweisen. Auf diese Weise kann wirkungsvoll verhindert werden, dass der Abstand der Backplatten bzw. Backflächen der geschlossenen Backplattenanordnung so gering wird, dass beim Backen in dem mittleren Bereich eines ausgebackenen Waffelblatts eine sehr dünne Stelle oder eine Fehlstelle entsteht.This object is achieved in that the baking plate assembly has a contact device which is arranged on the baking plate assembly, that the baking plates of a closed baking plate arrangement have a distance from each other. In this way it can be effectively prevented that the distance of the baking plates or baking surfaces of the closed baking sheet arrangement is so small that during baking in the central region of a baked wafer sheet a very thin spot or a defect is formed.
Durch eine solche Anlageeinrichtung wird die konvex vorgespannte Backplatte bzw. werden die konvex vorgespannten Backplatten entgegen der durch die konvexe Vorspannung auftretenden Verformung der Backplatte bzw. der Backplatten so in Richtung ebener Backflächen zurückverformt, dass die durch die konvexe Vorspannung hervorgerufene Verformung mindestens teilweise ausgeglichen wird. Dabei bleibt allerdings die dem durch den austretenden Dampf während des Backvorgangs auftretenden Dampfdruck entgegenwirkende und durch die konvexe Vorspannung erzeugte notwendige Vorspannungskraft erhalten, so dass durch die durch den Dampfdruck hervorgerufene Verformung der Backplatten der Backvorgang nicht beeinträchtigt wird. Die Backplatten werden erst bei Überschreiten eines durch die Vorspannkraft vorgegeben Grenzdampfdrucks verformt.By such a contact device, the convexly biased baking plate or be the convexly biased baking plates against the occurring due to the convex bias deformation of the baking plate or the Back plates in the direction of flat baking surfaces deformed back so that caused by the convex bias deformation is at least partially compensated. At the same time, however, the necessary pretensioning force counteracting the vapor pressure occurring through the exiting steam during the baking process and generated by the convex pretension is maintained, so that the baking process is not adversely affected by the deformation of the baking plates caused by the vapor pressure. The baking plates are deformed only when exceeding a predetermined by the biasing force limiting vapor pressure.
Bei Versuchen hat sich gezeigt, dass der beim Backen auftretende Dampfdruck zu Beginn des Backvorgangs zunächst stark ansteigt und dann langsam wieder abfällt. Der zunächst flüssige Teig härtet in einem im Wesentlichen durch den verwendeten Waffelteig beeinflussten Zeitbereich bei abfallendem Dampfdruck aus. Durch die Anlageeinrichtung kann einerseits ein Berühren der konvex vorgespannten Backplatten zu Beginn des Backprozesses vermieden werden und andererseits eine Spaltbreite zu einem Zeitpunkt des Backprozesses vorgegeben werden, an dem der Waffelteig aushärtet. Zwischen diesen Zeitpunkten kann eine dampfdruckbedingte Verformung der Backplatten zugelassen werden, die zu einer Auswölbung der Backplatten führt, da der definierte Abstand der Backplatten erst in einem Bereich geringeren Dampfdrucks, bei dem der Waffelteig aushärtet, erreicht sein muss.In tests it has been shown that the baking pressure occurring at the beginning of the baking process initially increases sharply and then slowly drops again. The initially liquid dough cures in a time range substantially influenced by the used wafer dough with decreasing vapor pressure. By the investment device on the one hand touching the convex-biased baking plates can be avoided at the beginning of the baking process and on the other hand, a gap width at a time of the baking process are specified, where the wafer dough hardens. Between these times, a vapor pressure-induced deformation of the baking plates can be allowed, which leads to a bulging of the baking plates, since the defined distance of the baking plates must be reached only in a region of lower vapor pressure at which the waffle dough hardens.
Daher ist es erfindungsgemäß möglich, die erforderliche Vorspannkraft so an den beim Backen auftretenden Dampfdruck anzupassen, dass die vorgespannten Backplatten zu Beginn des Backvorgangs und ab dem Zeitpunkt des Aushärtens bis zum Ende des Backvorgangs durch die Anlageeinrichtung abgestützt werden und einen durch die Anlageeinrichtung vorgegebenen Abstand aufweisen. Auf diese Weise können die Backplatten dünner ausgestaltet werden, da eine Verformung der Backplatten zugelassen wird.Therefore, it is possible according to the invention, the required biasing force to the occurring during baking vapor pressure adapt, that the prestressed baking plates at the beginning of the baking process and from the time of curing to the end of the baking process are supported by the investment device and have a predetermined by the investment device distance. In this way, the baking plates can be made thinner, since a deformation of the baking plates is allowed.
Zweckmäßigerweise wird die Vorspannkraft so vorgegeben, dass die Vorspannkraft größer ist als eine bei dem Backvorgang auftretende und auf die Backplatten entgegen der Vorspannkraft wirkende Dampfdruckkraft. Auf diese Weise wird die Backplatte in dem geöffneten Zustand stärker verformt, so dass erfindungsgemäß auch bei kleineren Backplatten eine Anlageeinrichtung zum Ausgleich der Verformung in dem geschlossenen Zustand der Backplattenanordnung verwendet wird.Conveniently, the biasing force is set so that the biasing force is greater than a occurring during the baking process and acting on the baking plates against the biasing force vapor pressure force. In this way, the baking plate is deformed more in the open state, so that according to the invention, even with smaller baking plates, a contact device is used to compensate for the deformation in the closed state of the baking plate arrangement.
Durch die hohe Vorspannkraft liegen die Backplatten während des gesamten Backprozesses an der Anlageeinrichtung an und weisen einen durch die Anlageeinrichtung vorgegebenen Abstand zueinander auf. Auf diese Weise ist es nicht erforderlich, die Vorspannkraft an die jeweils verwendeten Teigsorten bzw. an den bei den jeweils verwendeten Teigsorten auftretenden Dampfdruck anzupassen. Zudem wird eine Justierung der auf die Backplatten ausgeübten Vorspannkraft, bzw. der erzwungenen Verformung der Backplatten erleichtert und gegebenenfalls nicht mehr notwendig.Due to the high biasing force, the baking plates rest against the abutment device during the entire baking process and have a predetermined distance from one another by the abutment device. In this way, it is not necessary to adjust the preload force to the type of doughs used in each case or to the occurring at the dough types used in particular vapor pressure. In addition, an adjustment of the force exerted on the baking plates biasing force, or the forced deformation of the baking plates is facilitated and possibly no longer necessary.
Zudem ist es auf diese Weise möglich eine Verformung eines umlaufenden Rands der Backplatten durch den bei dem Backvorgang entstehenden Dampfdruck zu vermeiden und einen längs des umlaufenden Rands konstanten Dampfaustritt zu erreichen. Dadurch kann ein besonders gleichmäßiges Backergebnis erreicht werden. Durch eine Verformung des umlaufenden Rands wird der vorteilhafterweise über die gesamte Backplattenfläche konstante Dampfdruck so beeinflusst, dass der Dampfdruck bereichsweise unterschiedlich ist und das Backergebnis beeinflusst wird.In addition, it is possible in this way a deformation of a peripheral edge of the baking plates by the in the To avoid baking process resulting vapor pressure and to achieve a constant along the circumferential edge of the steam outlet. As a result, a particularly uniform baking result can be achieved. By a deformation of the peripheral edge of the advantageously over the entire baking surface area constant vapor pressure is influenced so that the vapor pressure is different regions and the baking result is affected.
Erfindungsgemäß ist vorteilhafterweise vorgesehen, dass die Backplattenanordnung ein Backzangengestell mit zwei schwenkbar miteinander verbundenen Gestellteilen aufweist, wobei die Backplatten an den Gestellteilen angeordnet sind. Backplatenanordnungen mit an Gestellteilen angeordneten Backplatten sind besonders kostengünstig herzustellen.According to the invention it is advantageously provided that the baking plate assembly has a baking tong frame with two frame parts pivotally connected to each other, wherein the baking plates are arranged on the frame parts.

Erfindungsgemäß liegen die Backplatten abschnittsweise an den Gestellteilen an. Die Gestellteile sind vorteilhafterweise so ausgestaltet, dass die Gestellteile gemeinsam mit den Backplatten konvex vorgespannt werden können und/oder Vorspannungskräfte der Backplatten aufnehmen können. Bei der durch die Anlageeinrichtung hervorgerufenen Verformung der Backplatten entgegen der durch die konvexe Vorspannung auftretenden Verformung der Backplatten wirken auf die Gestellteile Vorspannungskräfte durch die die Gestellteile verformt werden, so dass die dem Dampfdruck entgegenwirkenden Vorspannungskräfte von den Gestellteilen aufgebracht werden und auf die durch die Anlageeinrichtung in Richtung ebener Backflächen verformten Backplatten wirken.According to the invention, the baking plates rest in sections on the frame parts. The frame parts are advantageously designed so that the frame parts can be biased together with the baking plates convex and / or can absorb biasing forces of the baking plates. When caused by the investment device deformation of the baking plates against the occurring due to the convex bias deformation of the baking plates act on the frame parts biasing forces through which the frame parts are deformed so that the steam pressure counteracting biasing forces are applied by the frame parts and on by the investment in Direction of flat baking surfaces deformed baking plates act.
Die Backplatten und die Gestellteile werden vorteilhafterweise so vorgespannt, dass die Backplatten und die Backzangen in entgegengesetzte Richtungen verformt sind, wobei ein Abstand der Backplatten zu den Backzangen in einem Randbereich kleiner ist als in einem mittleren Bereich. Durch die Anlageeinrichtung werden die vorgespannten Backplatten in Richtung ebener Backflächen zurückverformt, wodurch die abschnittsweise an den Backplatten anliegenden Gestellteile weiter verformt und die Vorspannung der Gestellteile vergrößert wird. Die dem Dampfdruck entgegenwirkende Vorspannungskraft wird auf diese Weise von den Gestellteilen aufgebracht, während die Backflächen näherungsweise eben sind.The baking plates and the frame parts are advantageously biased so that the baking plates and the baking tongs are deformed in opposite directions, wherein a distance of the baking plates to the baking tongs in an edge region is smaller than in a central region. Due to the investment device, the prestressed baking plates are deformed back in the direction of flat baking surfaces, whereby the partially resting against the baking plates frame parts further deformed and the bias of the frame parts is increased. The vapor pressure counteracting biasing force is applied in this way of the frame parts, while the baking surfaces are approximately flat.

Dieser Abstand ist geringer als der bei dem Backvorgang erwünschte Abstand bzw. als eine Dicke einer gebackenen Waffel. Durch die Anlageeinrichtung wird als zusätzlicher Vorteil erreicht, dass sich die Backplatten beim Öffnen und Verschließen der Backplattenanordnung in einem Bereich in dem die Verschlussvorrichtung angeordnet ist leicht verformen, so dass der Abstand der Backplatten und Gestellteile ausreichend gering ist, um die Verschlussteile miteinander in Eingriff zu bringen oder voneinander zu lösen. Auf diese Weise wird insbesondere eine Beschädigung der gebackenen Waffel beim Öffnen der Backplattenanordnung vermieden.The closure devices of conventional breadboard assemblies typically include a first closure member pivotally mounted to a baking plate or frame member and a second closure member disposed on an opposing baking plate or frame member, wherein the first closure member and the second closure member engage with each other when the baking tray assembly is closed is. For closing and opening the baking plate arrangement, it is necessary to reduce the distance of the baking plates and frame parts to such an extent that the first closure part can be brought into engagement with the second closure part or the first closure part and the second closure part can be detached from one another.

Der Backprozess beginnt bei tstart und einem dem Umgebungsdruck entsprechenden Druck p0 zwischen den Backplatten. Durch die Erhitzung steigt der Dampfdruck bzw. der Druck zwischen den Backplatten p an, bis zu dem Zeitpunkt tk,1 ein Druck pk erreicht ist. Bei Erreichen des Drucks pk wird der Druck p so groß, dass die Backplatten nach außen gewölbt werden und sich ein Abstand der Backplatten in einem mittleren Bereich der Backplatten vergrößert.The baking process begins at t start and a pressure p 0 between the baking plates corresponding to the ambient pressure. As a result of the heating, the vapor pressure or the pressure between the baking plates p increases, until the time t k, 1 a pressure p k has been reached. When the pressure p k is reached, the pressure p becomes so great that the baking plates are arched outward and a distance between the baking plates in a central region of the baking plates increases.
Der Druck p steigt weiter an bis ein maximaler Dampfdruck pmax erreicht ist. Anschließend fällt der Druck p kontinuierlich ab. Zu einem Zeitpunkt tk,2 ist der Druck p auf das Niveau pk abgefallen und der Abstand der Backplatten ist im Wesentlichen durch die Anlageeinrichtung vorgegeben. Zu oder kurz nach diesem Zeitpunkt tk,2 beginnt der Waffelteig auszuhärten.The pressure p continues to increase until a maximum vapor pressure p max is reached. Subsequently, the pressure p decreases continuously. At a time t k, 2 , the pressure p has dropped to the level p k and the distance of the baking plates is essentially predetermined by the investment device. At or shortly after this time t k, 2 , the waffle dough begins to harden.
Die konvexe Vorspannung der Backplatten ist also so an den Backprozess angepasst, dass zu Beginn des Aushärtens des Waffelteigs der Abstand der Backplatten durch die Anlageeinrichtung vorgegeben wird, so dass eine Waffel mit vorgegebener Dicke hergestellt werden kann. Gleichzeitig wird mit Hilfe der Anlageeinrichtung vermieden, dass sich die konvex vorgespannten Backplatten zum Zeitpunkt t0 berühren.The convex bias of the baking plates is thus adapted to the baking process, that at the beginning of the curing of the wafer dough, the distance of the baking plates is predetermined by the investment device, so that a wafer with a predetermined thickness can be produced. At the same time is avoided with the help of the investment device that touch the convexly biased baking plates at time t 0 .
